From Mr Lopez
Hello MHS MB Families,
As we approach the week of band camp I wanted to send out the Commitment Form again and reminders of important dates for this season.
We will be having a parent meeting on Saturday, July 25th: 30 min parent meeting starts at 10:00 am in the MHS Band Room. w/Donuts!
Itinerary for meeting:
Review band camp schedule
Different ways to volunteer throughout the season and camp
Music Boosters
Q&A about band camp and the season
Below is the commitment form that needs to be signed and turned into Mr. Lopez on your students' first day of camp. Also the Band Camp Schedule is attached below.
Links to supplies for camp.
Besides your student's instrument, they will also need to purchase a Music Folio Flip Folder and a Lyre to attach the music to their instrument. These items can be found through Amazon, Marshall Music, Sweetwater Music Co., Collins Center in Downtown Milan, and other places (like Amazon). To find the correct Lyre, search “Instrument Name” Lyre. All Flip folders should be able to attach to all types of Lyres. Below is a link to Marshall Music Co. Shop and Sweetwater Music Co. Shop.
